I mention this alot to friends as well. We need new sci-fi concepts just like we need new super hero concepts.
Think about how outdated a bat signal is, why can't batman check for tweets?
- noblethrasher 13y agoThe Bat Signal is more secure. 1. It's inherently asymmetric (Batman can observe the message but messengers cannot observe him). 2. It's highly unlikely to be forged.
- m0nastic 13y ago1.) Twitter is also asymmetric 2.) I'm pretty sure that what seemed like a good third of the sixties Batman TV show episodes involved Batman showing up to the Bat Signal only to have it have been a trap. (and yes, I consider the TV show to be the canonical Batman).
- noblethrasher 13y agoFair enough on point 2. But he'd have to be careful about viewing his Twitter account wouldn't he?
